Apple Gears Up for Huge Watch 2 Launch

Apple plans to produce about two million Watch 2s every month when the updated smartphone goes on sale this fall.

(CCM) — Apple expects its second generation Apple Watch 2 to be far more popular than the original and is anticipating huge sales when the smartwatch goes on sale as early as September, according to a DigiTimes report. In recent weeks, the company has been busy placing orders for components for the new watch with part makers in Asia, but the sheer scale of Apple's shopping spree has taken some observers by surprise. Given the size of Apple's orders, it appears that the company is preparing to make about two million second generation Apple Watches a month.
